Jim- Happy Again!

By dougiebuster

The Plough.

Took this in the early hours of Sunday morning. ( 2.45 am ). Having problems with my lenses. What is it with DIGITAL lenses?
If I was taking this with my OM1, I would set it to BULB, lens to INFINITY and push the locking cable release.
I discovered that my lenses focus BEYOND infinity!
I assumed that the furthest travel ( set to manual ) would be INFINITY.
NOT the case!
It has to be pulled back from this to focus on infinity.

Anyone else found this?

It seemed to work with a bit of careful focussing - not easy with stars.

The sky colour is from Edinburgh light polution.
